The following table outlines the exclusions needed for running ENS/VSE on an Oracle Database server.

 

 

NOTES:

• It is not advised to exclude entire directories such as the Oracle Database directory and subdirectories from the scans. The reason is because it poses a potential high security risk.
• If you are in a clustered environment, you might need to consider rules for the Port Blocking section of Access Protection.

How to configure exclusions in ENS or VSE:
When you configure exclusions, always apply the principle that the more precise the exclusion, the smaller the potential security risk. For instructions to configure exclusions, see the following documentation:

• For ENS, see the "Preventing Threat Prevention from blocking trusted programs, networks, and services" section of the Endpoint Security 10.7 Product Guide
